I think we are going to need a new thread just about popcorn, and it's various ways to prepare.

Anyone buy a bottle of 'Chateau Neuf de Pop?"
It was selling for about $18 a bottle when I saw it 15 years ago in a gourmet shop. Ordinary wine bottle filled with popcorn, and a home-printed label. The shop owner said she had trouble keeping it stocked. I'll stick with Orville. I buy the 8lb bottle at Costco, and after opening, I take a damp paper towel and stick it inside the bottle to just slightly raise the moisture content inside the kernels. They pop up HUGE!!!!

Ha ha! I often drink "Châteauneuf-du-Pape", though it is a bit pricey. Never had the popping variety though.

Well that popcorn went down well, though I think I'm going to have to invest in the "proper" loose kernels and do some experimentation. Just off to the shops...

Improving now - able to eat soft solid food - waiting for the socket to heal & seal over.

No nachos for the Super Bowl!

That's lousy. Can't you put them in a blender...?

I'm stuck at just under 12 Stone / 75Kg, which was my original target, but would like to lose another 2 - 3 Kg and settle there. I'm still doing the 5:2 (or 6:1 sometimes) fasting, but it just seems to allow me to maintain, so I may have to get back to a full on diet again for a few weeks.

I'm hanging right at 79k. Still not eating 'big' meals... trying to keep the calories below 1200 instead of the 900 when I was working at it. Only taking long walks every other day or so, but really pushing when we walk. I'm comfortable at this weight, but wouldn't mind dropping another 3-4kg. In March I'm going to start a regimen of muscle building to get in better shape for our move back into the jungle in June/July.
